This book was released on 2009 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has conducted a series of coordinated research projects (CRPs) that have focused on irradiated reactor pressure vessel (RPV) steel fracture toughness properties and approaches for assuring structural integrity of RPVs throughout operating life. A series of nine CRPs has been sponsored by the IAEA, starting in the early 1970s, focused on neutron radiation effects on RPV steels. The purpose of the CRPs was to develop comparisons and correlations to test the uniformity of irradiated results through coordinated international research studies and data sharing. Consideration of dose rate effects, effects of alloying (nickel, manganese, silicon, etc.) and residual elements (e.g., copper and phosphorus), and drop in upper shelf toughness is also important for assessing neutron embrittlement effects. The ultimate use of embrittlement understanding is assuring structural integrity of the RPV under current and future operation and accident conditions. Material fracture toughness is the key ingredient needed for this assessment, and many of the CRPs have focused on measurement and application of irradiated fracture toughness. This paper presents an overview of the progress made since the inception of the CRPs in the early 1970s. The chronology and importance of each CRP have been reviewed and put into context for continued and long-term safe operation of RPVs.

Download or read book Application of Surveillance Programme Results to Reactor Pressure Vessel Integrity Assessment written by International Atomic Energy Agency and published by IAEA. This book was released on 2005 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication has been developed under the Coordinated Research Project (CRP) entitled: Surveillance Program Results Application to Reactor Pressure Vessel Integrity Assessment. This publication provides a summary of master curve fracture toughness test results on small surveillance type specimens of the IAEA reference material JRQ and other national steels from numerous laboratories around the world. These results were a key ingredient used in the development of the guidance given in IAEA Technical Reports Series No. 429, Guidelines for Application of the Master Curve Approach to Reactor Pressure Vessel Integrity. This publication has been written to allow utility engineers and scientists to directly measure fracture toughness and apply the results using the master curve approach for RPV structural integrity assessment.--Publisher description.

Book Synopsis Irradiation Embrittlement of Reactor Pressure Vessels (RPVs) in Nuclear Power Plants by : Naoki Soneda
Download or read book Irradiation Embrittlement of Reactor Pressure Vessels (RPVs) in Nuclear Power Plants written by Naoki Soneda and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2014-09-01 with total page 437 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reactor Pressure Vessels (RPVs) contain the fuel and therefore the reaction at the heart of nuclear power plants. They are a life-determining structural component: if they suffer serious damage, the continued operation of the plant is in jeopardy. This book critically reviews irradiation embrittlement, the main degradation mechanism affecting RPV steels, and mitigation routes for managing the RPV lifetime. Part I reviews RPV design and fabrication in different countries, with an emphasis on the materials required, their important properties, and manufacturing technologies. Part II then considers RVP embrittlement in operational nuclear power plants using different reactors. Chapters are devoted to embrittlement in light-water reactors, including WWER-type reactors and Magnox reactors. Finally, Part III presents techniques for studying embrittlement, including irradiation simulation techniques, microstructural characterisation techniques, and probabilistic fracture mechanics. Irradiation Embrittlement of Reactor Pressure Vessels (RPVs) in Nuclear Power Plants provides a thorough review of an issue that is central to the safety of nuclear power generation. The book includes contributions from an international team of experts, and will be a useful resource for nuclear plant operators and managers, relevant regulatory and safety bodies, nuclear metallurgists and other academics in this field Discusses reactor pressure vessel (RPV) design and the effect irradiation embrittlement can have, the main degradation mechanism affecting RPVs Examines embrittlement processes in RPVs in different reactor types, as well as techniques for studying RPV embrittlement

This book was released on 2004 with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has sponsored a series of Coordinated Research Programs (CRPs) that have been focused on integrity of reactor pressure vessel (RPV) materials. The emphasis in the last few years has been on the development of a large fracture mechanics database of three-point bend fracture toughness tests on precracked Charpy specimens and larger 1T (25.4 mm thickness) compact tension specimens, using the Master Curve approach that has been standardized in ASTM Test Method for the Determination of Reference Temperature, To, for Ferritic Steels in the Transition Range (E 1921). More than 20 international laboratories have conducted a significant amount of fracture toughness testing to allow evaluation of the Master Curve results obtained following ASTM E 1921. The current CRP also has the objective to develop international guidelines for producing adequate Master Curve data and applying the data to RPV integrity analyses. This paper will first describe a preliminary review of the data that have been produced with emphasis on the A533B-1 correlation monitor heat JRQ, which has served as a key material for the CRP. The main emphasis of the paper will be on the development of international guidelines for applying the Master Curve data that can be obtained from irradiated sample material for the most limiting RPV material.

Zinkle (UTK/ORNL) and with contributions from leaders of each alloy discipline, Structural Alloys for Nuclear Energy Applications aids the next generation of researchers and industry staff developing and maintaining steels, nickel-base alloys, zirconium alloys, and other structural alloys in nuclear energy applications. This authoritative reference is a critical acquisition for institutions and individuals seeking state-of-the-art knowledge aided by the editors’ unique personal insight from decades of frontline research, engineering and management. Focuses on in-service irradiation, thermal, mechanical, and chemical performance capabilities. Covers the use of steels and other structural alloys in current fission technology, leading edge Generation-IV fission reactors, and future fusion power reactors. Provides a critical and comprehensive review of the state-of-the-art experimental knowledge base of reactor materials, for applications ranging from engineering safety and lifetime assessments to supporting the development of advanced computational models.

Download or read book Guidelines for Application of the Master Curve Approach to Reactor Pressure Vessel Integrity in Nuclear Power Plants written by International Atomic Energy Agency and published by IAEA. This book was released on 2005 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The master curve approach for assessing the fracture toughness of a sampled irradiated material has been gaining acceptance throughout the world. This direct measurement approach is preferred over the correlative and indirect methods used in the past to assess irradiated reactor pressure vessel (RPV) integrity. The master curve methodology already has been or is being assimilated into the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, ASTM standards, USNRC regulations, German regulations (KTA 3203), IAEA PTS guidelines for WWER reactors as well as the VERLIFE "Unified Procedure for WWER Component Lifetime Assessment" and other industry guidance documents governing RPV integrity analysis. As this report was prepared using the results of many research projects and experiments, these guidelines for application will be used for a long time to evaluate and assess the residual life of RPVs.
